Christmas gifts

Since we were in Orlando for Christmas Day, I didn't see my presents until we returned on the 30th. Since I am very good recognizing my name, I opened all the presents that had a tag with a big Diego on them.
I received many fun things including a Smart Brite, books, Baby Bop and BJ dolls, videos and DVD's.

We have company!

While we were in Orlando, abuela, abuelo and Titi Lourdes came to visit us. They stayed in a hotel close to ours and we saw each other every day. We went shopping in different Outlets and we also visited Mary Queen of the Universe shrine.

Here I am with Abuela and Titi and with Abuela and Abuelo:

Then on Friday we all came to Tampa together and everybody stayed home.

Christmas Vacations

For Christmas this year, my family went to Orlando where we stayed in a very nice hotel and visited fun places.

First, we went to Sea World and I loved riding the Atlantis roller coaster. I love getting wet in this ride and the thrill of the fall! We saw pinguins, sea lions and otters. It was a lot of fun and thanks to my red wagon, I was able to travel around the park without getting too tired. In Sea World we met with Titi Annie, Tio Boris, Ana Cristina, Titi Luly and Tio Bebi. They were also vacationing in Orlando and we spent some time together feeding the dolphins.

This is me on the Penguin Encounter exhibition:

That night we went to Celebration to a party in the street and they had snow! I enjoyed the snow falling in the floor and all over me!

The next day, it was Christmas day and we went to Universal Studios. This day was AMAZING because not only I rode in E.T. the ride, Men in Black and Jaws, most important I went to see BARNEY on stage!!!. This is not the first time I go, but each visit I understand more and more and have more fun every time. On this ocassion, my brother got first row seats for me and I saw everything upclose. I didn't miss a detail and my mom recorded the show to watch it at home. When the show was over I saw Barney in person and gave him my biggest smile and hug. I also enjoy visiting the Barney Store and I can be there for hours if you let me, looking at all the cool things I enjoy like books, videos and toys of my favorite characters.

This is me on the Barney Fountain:

The next day, we visited Islands of Adventure and I loved riding the Storm ride, Spider Man, the Brutus rafts (where I got soaked!!), the Unicorn roller coaster and all the Dr. Seuss rides.

Winter Break is here

Today was the last day of school before the winter break and my teachers had a fun day of activities prepared.
We painted, cut, glued, mixed and had a very nice time!
I am ready to start my winter break and enjoy Christmas.

My diet is changed yet again

In my latest visit to my health care provider, my diet was changed to eliminate two of my favorites: corn tortilla chips and rice. My diet needs to consist of proteins and some fruits and vegetables. My mom is doing this gradually, first eliminating the chips and rice but still letting me have some rice cereal and millet bread. It has been hard for me and the carb cravings are coming strong. Magnesium and Zinc supplements along with some Chamomile seem to help me be in a better mood when things get rough.
